What do Melbourne people and some neutrals think of this trade?

Pick 4 and Mitch Clark >> Collingwood
Pick 22 and Lester/Harwood >> Melbourne
Beams >> Brisbane

Reckon that's pretty spot on.

Melbourne are giving up too much for what they're getting IMO

All they're giving up is Clarke and getting 22 + Harwood/Lester in return. I reckon that's pretty good, all things considered

Would be absolutely stoked. Seems like overs from Brisbane though.

I'd prefer Lester but I can't see him wanting to come to us. Harwood maybe.

Yeah I read it wrong and deleted my comment. For some reason I thought they had given up 4 and Clarke.

Yea Lester's girlfriend is Zorko's sister, so it might be a bit hard convincing him to leave Brisbane, but Harwood is even in value and is the better kick of the two.

Cheers for the feed back guys, it's nice to hear some outsiders perspectives.

Yeah Harwood's kicking and rebound from defence is something we really need. Like I said I'd be stoked with that trade. It gives us four picks inside the top 25 and a quality prospect in Harwood or Lester who would instantly be best 22.

If Collingwood are dicks, would you take Harwood/Lester for Clark? I.e. then we can add pick 22 to the Collingwood package?

Depends what other offers we get (from Geelong, Essendon, etc). I'd probably prefer the pick, given that we might have to use our second on Billy Stretch and I'd like to have a live pick in the twenties in case Lamb, McKenzie or Smith slide.

4 and Clark for Beams is spot on .......think not .

Bucks on the ABC today said Collingwood would only be interested in trading for players of similar stature, named Hanley..

I doubt Hanley would want to leave, his little brother has signed on to come to our club and he signed a 5 year deal he loves Brisbane so much.

Collingwood want a mature quality player - Mitch Clark is exactly that and fills their list need of getting more help for Cloke up forward. They also get a top 4 draft pick. Surely getting that is better than keeping a disgruntled Beams who will leave next year for less.

You have to laugh at the suggestion of trading Claye down to Collingwood to keep Dayne happy. What about the father? Isn't that why Dayne wants to get home

Now Collingwood want to move more family away from Dayne's dad. Crazy :drunk:

I have no opinion on it, just passing on what I heard, he was quite dismissive of pick 4 and said they had enough youth, they wanted players of similar stature.

Bit of a cop out thing to say on pick 4 that you have enough youth. How can any club (bar GCS and GWS) have enough top end talent to say no to pick 4... crazy.

It did seem odd tbh, but the preference for a quality game ready player coming back to them is understandable.

How about we meet in the middle, Collingwood trades with the Suns and Claye is traded from the Lions to keep the family together?

What do you think the Suns are going to give you that makes the deal so great?

Determinant · Sep 27, 2014

I thought the Lumumba/Clark swap rumour was fairly solid, if so Melbourne can only spend him once

I don't know but I'm sure they'd be interested in Beams.

Some tension in the bidding is always helpful.

Send our second rd pick or Lester/Harwood to Collingwood and HarryO to Melbourne? I.e. add Harry to the three way trade.

Pick 22 is already Melbourne's. But I think I get the gist of your idea. I think Melbourne would be happy to get Crisp/Lester/Harwood for Clark given his health issues. I reckon the trade could work but you just know the Pies are gonna block it. Greedy bastards.

No way

Mathew Leunberger for ??? Any thoughts

Assuming all parties entertained the idea of a return to their home state:

Beams -> Bris
Danger -> Coll
Aish or Mayes + 2nd Rd pick -> Adel

Adealide getting ripped off. Should push for Brisbane's 1st+2nd+one of that pair for Dangerfield+10 at least.
